tw: Total number of people provoked? Zero. Total number of people who provoked themselves - apparently greater than zero. For example, classicman cannot accept that he does not comprehend the science. He confused air flow with temperature. With high school physics, he would understand his mistake. Identifying simple technical science mistakes is provoking? He cannot even requote accurately? Be entertained. With age, one gets better. An adult responds logically as Clodfobble has done. He should eventually grow so as to not provoke himself. But correcting his mistakes provokes no one.

Facts. Number from Clodfobble provided reality. Hairdryer at 150 degrees does not burn hair. 150 degrees F causes no electronics damage. To harm electronics, temperatures would burn hair. Clodfobble has responded logically – with numbers -which demonstrate why a hairdryer does not harm cellphones.

Hairdryer does not harm a cell phone. But neither a hairdryer nor vacuum can effectively pull water out of those membrane chambers. Problem in drying a cell phone is to get water out of membrane chambers. Those facts don't provoke adults.

By trying to evade the charge of provocateur you are doing exactly the same thing.

If you don't think there's a reasonable chance that someone with a wet cellphone could further damage the cellphone with a hairdryer, in addition to my previous statements, I say you suffer from a lack of imagination.
